Console learning curve

[Asus]

It looks like the Xbox360 vs PS3 will have a pretty noticeable difference for consumers with EA sports games. (http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=8455)
Xbox360's will run at 60FPS and PS3 version will be 30FPS (standard for all PS3 football games this year).

Hope it won't take developers too long to 'master' making games designed for the PS3.

*Don't get the wrong idea about why the frame rate is different. Reading the article might help.
*I don't buy EA sport games.

The only good multi-platform games is the Burnout series. That is all. :|

Funny how Infinity Ward can make borh run at 60 fps, with AA.

Possibly because EA just make it for one console then port it over as fast as possible, Ubisoft style.

I don't like EA. They mass produce games in sweat-shop style with no effort at giving them soul. They bring out the same shit year after year with hardly anything new added... Odd how Americans lap it up and keep them in business though. Basketball, Baseball, American Football ... there must be like 2 or even 3 of each of these per year dropping from the anus that is EA.

I'm about as bothered about EA games on the PS3 as I am about the PS3 itself. Sony, bend over.

The reason they sell so well is because EA either buys exclusive rights to the players association of that sport (Madden) or are making the best shitty sports title in a sea of shit, 2K Sports is really their only rival as far as sports goes

EA was awesome when Legacy of the Ancients and Bard's Tale and such were hot (even though they didn't develop them):

Unfortunately for them they seem to have lost sight of their ideals. I guess it just goes to show you that money doesn't necessarily make your organization more talented. Pity...but Madden sucks anyway. :D

They should focus on publishing and not developing. They obviously can't do it competitively.

It's pretty sad, really.

A game that only ran on macs?

EA can hardly be blamed for this, the problem lies in the buying public that rewards companies like that.

You paid double the money for your console and you run half the frame rate? *Points finger and laughs*
